Home Pool





Home Pool is the very first location that was produced in Grifwald. Here the main character built his first night's shelter, and continued to build on this shelter until finally it became the tower and transit hub that it is today.

Home Pool remains the core of the Grifwald Empire, and most resource collection and manufacturing is centred there.

Purpose
Home Pool was the very first night's shelter for the main character. Originally nothing more than a hole in the side of a hill, it has been added to and built on over the years, until now it has become a complex hub at the core of the Grifwald Empire.

Now Home Pool serves as a central storage location for resources, as well as a manufacturing area. All transport networks radiate from it, so that all resources can be chanelled towards it and collected in one central location.

Construction
Cut directly out of the living stone beneath Home Pool hill, it has since had Home Pool Tower built on top of it using mostly cobble.

The interior is lined with wood and various coloured wool carpets, and beneath the Deep Mine terminating station a small underground area has been made into a chicken coup and miniature farm.

The main western entrance to Home Pool has since been incorporated within the boundaries of Home Pool Tower, and as such is now an internal door. This has been left in place because the pressure-plate activation of the iron doors still allows access by night mobs, so the additional door (even though it is also activated by a pressure plate) provide some small degree of extra protection from invading mobs.

This setup, as well as the ladder-only access to the top level of Home Pool Tower will be upgraded in the not-too-distant future... but for now it's adequate and other projects have taken priority...
